I see a lot of supposed adults crying like babies because they lost a democratic vote.

Whining on about stuff that hasn't happened or will happen. But..... Remoaners gotta remoan.

I feel pity for you, nothing else.

Nobody here is crying.

So you acknowledge that our fears will happen?

But..... Remoaners gotta remoan.


Great point, well made!

I'm surprised that you even know how to get out of bed in the morning. There's stupid and then there's your posts in this thread.

What is the name for the person sitting on the fence and just watching things play out? Would I be a no-hoper (no voter)?

Yes?

And I see a lot of idiots taken in by the bullshit of the alt-right who are only able to spout meaningless tripe like "remoaners gotta remoan" because they saw it on the internet and are unable to form their own considered opinion. I daresay you're one of them!

I mean...it's demonstrable fact that the leave vote has already been harmful for the UK, it takes an incredible amount of wilful ignorance to say otherwise.
And this is before we've even left.

God knows what's going to happen on the 29th when Article 50 is officially invoked, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised to see another sharp decline in the pound like we did after the referendum result.

Unfortunately not. You see a lot of his type on the internet and they are usually completely serious. A large proportion of people have absolutely no idea about how the world works or how politics works and they will just parrot whatever people like Nigel Farage or newspapers like the Daily Express tell them. The EU is bad because it’s bad, Remoaners are bad because they are bad. Etc. These people do not have the intellectual capacity for any nuanced debate, it’s pointless asking them what they mean or to supply any evidence as they are not capable of it. You might as well ask your dog to do maths for you. In a way I prefer the racist Leavers, at least they actually have a reason rather than just “lol leavers gonna leave!”.

That doesn’t go for all Leave voters btw. Some of them have actual reasons for voting out, I might disagree with them but they do have reasons other than what they think is a catchy slogan or because they are just doing what their favourite trashy tabloid tells them.

Where have you seen them? What did they say? Was there any validity to their statements -- is it just the tone you take issue with, or the content as well? Again, if you don't actually follow-through on your thoughts and provide a bit more detail and depth then there is literally nothing here for us to talk about and people are just going to make fun of you.

Imagine saying this in a pub to a friend who voted Remain. What could they possibly reply? "Uh... okay?" It would be a pretty boring conversation, wouldn't it? It would be better to say "So-and-so said x and I disagree because y, and then your friend might actually be able to engage with you.

At the moment you are just shouting into a void. Are you out to 'wind remoaners up lol' or are you out to have an actual discussion, an exchange of reasonable views with other people?

Is it possible to wind remoaners up any more than they are already over having lost the remain vote?

Fact is, you don't need to have a conversation with them as they lost and just moan on about having done so.

But.... Remoaners gotta remoan.

Uhhh....what is that article supposed to be relevant to? We're not printing acts on goat skin anymore? Oh no. In the digital age how could we not continue doing that?

Holy gooseberry fool, the Brexit act will not be printed on goat skin? strawberry floating Remoaners ruining everything.

Wait, doesn't that go for all new laws? Didn't MPs vote for archives to change?

You and your buddies at the Daily Mail are not moaning about the change from goat skin to paper are you? After losing a democratic vote, you still want laws written on dead goats?

And you think it is Remain voters that are crying and moaning? :slol:

The fact is leavers don't want 'remoaners' talking because they're desperate to avoid any chance of culpability or responsibility for the massive act of harm they caused.
Victim silencing is the best way to try and avoid blame. (It's not going to come from self analysis)

It's rather transparent and childish - but then they are leave voters.

That or 'because the EU/rest of world didn't fold and give us all our demands on our terms in our timeframe against THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE'

We're in for years of deluded posturing from people trying to explain how they were right and in no way to blame despite the gooseberry fool storm around them.

I voted Remain and I wouldn't consider myself to be particularly 'wound up' by you. I think talking to you would be a more interesting experience if you could engage in a more mature way -- is this a 'remoaner' view-point? That said, your behaviour at the moment is pretty rude so I don't think I can blame people for getting frustrated with you.

Your preferred politics won a referendum, but I don't think this means that the underlying ideologies have to stop competing, particularly in a politics debate thread on a discussion forum. Continued debate is important for all sorts of reasons -- from informing future debates (Scexit?) to ensuring we get the kind of Brexit that works best for the country (is 'hard Brexit' and trade under WTO rules the best deal we can hope for? Would the consequences be acceptable? If so, why? If not, what would a better solution be?).

The vellum story is nothing to do with Brexit, by the way. The Lords decided that £100,000 extra for vellum wasn't cost-effective over archival paper for keeping records of legislation, as cheaper archival paper can last up to 500 years anyway. It's applying to all legislation moving forward.

This yungstar guy is hatefully moronic and at least needs thread-banning if not a forum ban to teach him not to be a banana split.

:lol:

Has there ever been a group of spoilt children quite like the Leave supporters? They are literally getting there own way on everything they want but still cried and cried when the British courts and British Parliament had the final say on Article 50 (despite telling us that they wanted British courts and the British Parliament to rule this country).

The Bill passes Parliament easily, with no amendments and the Prime Minister is about to trigger the hard Brexit that they wanted and yet they are still crying and crying about the mean “Remoaners” talking down the country and wanting it to all fail.

Imagine getting your own way to the extent that Leave supporters are, but still being an absolute bunch of whining self pitying babies.

If you want to make a convincing case for moderation then the thread has to look like "idiot comes into otherwise nice place and ruins it" rather than "whole bunch of idiots fighting amongst themselves." Posts like yours make it seem like the latter, and actually make it less likely the Mods will take action. Stop being part of the problem.
